MR. ELIAS CARR.

This gentleman was made Presi-
dent Of the Mass Convention, and
was elected President of the North
Carolina Farmers Association. In
bestowiRg this honor the Convention
honorsd itself. Mr.. Carr is a true
representative Of the highest type
Of Southern gentlemen. He is mod
est; pfeasanU and dignified. He has
devoted his whole lite Uohis farm at
old Sparta, in E~dgecombe equity
which for neatness, th%oroughness
and system in the management is
not surpassed by any farm in the
State. He is one of the few men
in the State who has been so Success
full in the management Of negro
labor as to make money on a cotton
farm and to constantly improve his
lands. The Association is to be
congratulated on having this model
farmer and excellent gentleman at
it's head.

tries. But to live, active, honest IN
telligent men, it extends a cordial
welcome, let them come from wbnra
they may. The sposition Of tho
writer is well known to all our noo
pie on this important matter, W.
confess, however, hat we have IittIo
hopes Of seeing any considerable
number Of good people from the
North come among US. W.
believe that the great Difference
in the social and industrial systems
of the people of the two sections will
tend greatly to prevent it. Thew
are the people we need and want
and u people will meet them and
welcome them most cordially. W.
say this in justice to our people and
in justice to the good people who
have settled at Southern Pines
who, we regret to learn, are offend.
ed at some remark made by a cor
respondent of this paper.
One word as to Mr.. J. T. Patrick
We have known him from his infan-
cy. We know much of the trials
and difficulties through which he
has struggled, not only in childhood
and boyhood. but in the discharge
Of the duties imposed upon him as
Commissioned immigration. With
out referring to his qualifications
(of which the public must judge,)
we do say that no public officer in
the State is more faithfully devoted
to his duties.
We are, however, in accord with the
views Of the Farmers Convention as
expressed in it's action, hat the ex-
pense of MI. Patrick's Department
should be paid out Of the common
fund and not out of the Agricultural
Department.

to a question as to what proportion
of the time and work ofthe Station,
was devoted to work other than that
ofAgriculture, he stated that n
half to two thirds Of it under the
law had been appropriated and ap-
piled to other work: The farmers
ask the legislature to relleVe the
Station from all work except In the
line Of agriculture, and thereby cur
tail the expenses ofthat department
and thus make another saving Tor
the Agricultural College.
Quite a number Of resolutions on
other. subjects adopted which
will appear next week in the oflcla

A DISAPPOINTED PROPHET.

A Raleigh correspondent Of the
Tu1bOyo SOMtherner, under date Ofthe
"a inst writes;
"Col. Polk is going to/bring another
meeting here onX the Goth. The Col. is
known to be unfavorable to the present
organization and work of the Board and
some lively speeches may be expected
Judging from what we saw the othernight.
The main idea of Polk's meeting seems
to be to organize an Agricultural College
To do this he proposes to take the Land
scrip Fund away from the Univer-
sity and get whatever additional money
that NAV be necessary from the legisla-
ture. He will have no difficulty in pass
ing any resolution he desires in his meet
ing but his fight will actually begin when
he undertakes to put it in the shape OF
legislation.
Another disappointment. The olive
ly speeches. that were respected"
we're not heard. The farmers COM
prising that convention were a dig
nifed but earnest set of men. They
did not meet to wrangle and indulge
in "Iively speeches. and abuse of
men or measures, but in the patriotic
exercise of their rights as taxpayers
and citizens, to present to the Gen
eral Assembly their views, their
wants and their necessities. This
they did in respectful and courteous
manner, and they confidently ex-
pect and believe that their wishes
will be carried out by that body.

A OPINION.

The High Point Enterprise discus
sing the action, or rather IN
action of the legislature now in SEES
sion at Raleigh, remarks:
This Legislature should do some
thing to help the farmer. North
Carolina is a fine State for Agrlcul-
tural purposes, it's lands are varied,
fertile, and easily cultivated. Yet
our farmers are not succeeding, and
when the farmers, the very tounda-
ton of our all, get to be poorer class
we need the assistance of the State
and the prayers of the righteous.
W. want an entire change in the
Agricultural Department. Ifthe Fer
tilizer Companies pay into the State
$4,000 annually, and the farmer
reimburses them, then the farmer
should get the benefit of the taxano
it should not be paid out in salaries
to experts, chemists and secretaries,
The selling of James river sand at
$40 per ton did not constitute hall
the fraud that this Agricultural bu-
reau has been upon the people; a
new lien law and a revision OF the
homestead seems to be necessary
and if properly framed will material
~ aid our people in adjusting their
affairs.

THE GRANGE.

Mr.. J. T. Eaton is General Deputy
of. the State Grange, Patrons of
Husbandry, and is devoting his
time to Grange work in reviving
dormant oranges, the organization Of
new oranges and delivering lectures
to oranges, &c. He is ready to go
to any part of the State to prosecute
this work, and we trust he may be
kept busy during the year. The
Grange is a noble order and we sim
cerely wish that every farmer in the
State belonged to it. The Farmers
Clubs, the Farmers State Associa-
ton and the Grange are all working
for the same noble ends, and we
hope to live to see the day when
even the difference in name shall
not exist. Write to Mr.. Eaton at

Contemplate MISREPRESEN.
Y V TATION.

Charles r., of the Charlotte o.
serrer, has discovered another"mare's
nest" He makes a contemplate
-etfortin1 that fthe42Qth-nlt
to ~disparage the work of the Farm
ers' Convention. He says: "The Con-
vention seems to have been captured
by Ex-Governor Jarvis, Buck"
Kitchen, James T. LeGrand and Lee
S. Overman."
The facts are THAT Ex-Governor
Jarvis addressed the Convention by
invitation-no one was captured"
by the speech. Mr.. Kitchen was a
member of the Convention and did
not even attempt to lead in the Con-
vention. Mr., LeGrand, one of the
largest farmers of the Pee Dee sec
ton, was a member Of the Conven-
ton and was in hearty accord with
the Convention in purpose and act
ion, and made a valuable member.
Mr.. Lee S. Overman being strictly
a lawyer had the good sense and
good taste not to obtrude himself
upon the Convention,-indeed, if he
even visited the Convention, it was
not known to that body. There are
other and equally untruthful state
ments in the editorial referred to,
but which are rendered unimport-
ant by the animus which character
ICES the article.
